Description

Today’s Talmud pages, Gittin 68 and 69, tell stories as wide ranging as a comedy of manners, fantasy and suspense discussing demons of all types, and practical advice including the ancient remedy for migraines and nosebleeds. For a set of pages like these we could only invite one person, and so Jordan Gorfinkel joins us to walk us through the wonderful stories of this page with his special cinematic take on these stories. In the end we realize that all of this is just a way to learn the lesson that we should embrace our loved ones. What can you learn from whether a person is wearing socks? Listen and find out.
